Ever thought about why or how the Green Card Visa Diversity Program (dv) came into existence? |

|
Why does the Green Card Visa Lottery Exist?
The USA is a nation built by immigrants for immigrants. It is a vast country that has experienced both political and economic stability throughout it's history and as a result, attracts foreigners from all over the World.
The popularity of the USA as a growing and prosperous nation and the fight against terrorism has forced the US to implement strict entry laws, stemming the flow of immigrants and non immigrants into the country.
The good news, however is that despite the restrictive immigration laws practised in the USA, the Immigration Act of 1990 - which was signed by Former President Bush on November 29th 1990 - included a Permanent Lottery DV Program.
It's through this unique program, that individuals like YOU, from around the World, are legally entitled to apply for permanent residency in the USA.
So how is the Green Card Visa Diversity Program implemented?
This form of permanent residency status is more commonly referred to as having a "Green Card".
Winning a green card through the American Green Card Visa Lottery program is achieved yearly through a unique process of random selection drawn by computer.
After the draw has taken place, up to 50,000 winning applicants are subsequently eligible to receive "Green Card" status!
So is it just that Simple?
Yes, providing you qualify all you have to do is simply take advantage of the opportunity and enter the draw in the manner stipulated by the US State Department. Hurry as a deadline applies.
